[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 0x83:
Hello,

on the htc desire time values are entered with these iOS-Like "wheels". On my a32, there are only the quite stupid android +- controls. Is there a hack to bring the cool "wheels" to gen8?

greets, lukas

Hey, after I themed my phone with the Honeycomb theme I wanted the Gingerbread icons but blue for my dock in LauncherPro. I couldn't find any like that anywhere so I made my own using the icons from this thread and just used "replace color" in Photoshop. Thought I'd share if anyone else wanted blue icons.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] royalbloodvi:
cool, can you upload the wallpaper too?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] avlopp:
Sure, here you go :)

Otherwise it's available on Zedge, that's where I found it, just search for "mycolours blue".
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] sanjay_bandaru:
which clock is tat ..n de surrounding widgetsss
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] edk141:
looks like honeycomb clock, don't know the widgets
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] avlopp:
Yeah, it's the Honeycomb clock and the widgets are Widgetsoid with transparent background :)

edit: The clock is available for free in the market.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maix27:
Hi guys, this may be a stupid question but I'm trying to install the oxygen Hboot but don't want to use a USB cable. I've tried flashing the .Zip file from clockwork but it doesn't do anything. Am I missing something? I tried this with and without wiping everything.

Cheers folks!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meaple:
You need a usb cable, no other way to do it. You can use fastboot to flash the Oxygen Hboot. You do need to be S-Off though to be able to do this. There is a utility as well which makes it easier so it's your choice. Fastboot command is something like

fastboot flash hboot FILENAME.img
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheGhost1233:
If you are S-off you can try the pb99img method, but that is not via recovery but hboot. Instructions are on the alpharev site. It doesn't work for everyone buy it is the only way to do out without usb connection.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meaple:
I tried that method and needed a Goldcard for it.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maix27:
Ah, goldcard, i'll give that a try. My GC isn't my main SD.

Thanks for the advice, if i can't do it with the goldcard i suppose i'll have to get my ubuntu skills up an running!

Really liked the look of Oxy so want to give it a try.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] x87:
I suppose you first have to do the usb method. When you are S-OFF you are able to change the partitions with pb99img.zip

Hint: You don't need your Ubuntu skills, because there is a ready to go linux image on the alpharev site. It even worked in a virtual machine for me.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maix27:
Sorry, i should have said, i am already S-Off, i did that fine with the Live CD. However it isn't clear how i use the img file to change my Hboot as i can't seem to burn it to disc (i.e. to run it as a live CD).

I know i'm being stupid and the solution is probably quite clear, i'm just not getting it at the moment!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheGhost1233:
No idea what you want to do with .img's and burning them when changing hboot layouts. Do you even read the info on http://alpharev.nl/? There are 6 steps on how to do it with usb and the .img and one line on how to do it without a usb connection and a .zip. If you really don't want/can use a usb cable do this:

You can also download the corresponding PB99IMG zipfile, put it on your sdcard, and rename it to PB99IMG.zip. Then start the phone in HBOOT mode (VolDown+POWER) to flash the HBOOT without a PC.

But like mentioned before this doesn't work for everyone.

Else you have to use fastboot and therefore connect via usb.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maix27:
Got it working, used USB via fastboot, was easy as pie once I'd decided to give up on the .zip!

Cheers for the help guys.

I never use the camera button on my streak so I want to change it so it would be useful to me (maybe locking auto rotate or assigning a task killer program to it for instant memory). Any have any ideas on how to do this and/or do you want to change the action of your camera button?
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psychozoidberg:
You can use buttonremapper to reassign the camera key (but it will no longer be a camera key, even if you are using the camera app or something like vignette). You need root for this- I have it as media pause/play

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] busydoinnothin:
I let my battery die off this morning til I got home. I plugged it into the wall and tried to boot up. I got the green light to flash but then nothing. I pulled the battery out and even left it charging for a few hours. Still, the phone does not power up. The green light turns on for a bit and then off. I haven't done any mods to the phone...

Any idea what is going on? Or perhaps how I can fix this? Any help would be great.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] busydoinnothin:
Weird. I had it plugged in my Energizer Ps3 controller stand (it has two usb outputs) which was giving me the issue before. I finally plugged it in to the wall and it boot up fine. I guess the PS3 stand may be faulty...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neer2005:
Use the charger that came with your phone.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azwildfire:
If you do a google search, you will see that the droid x and droid 2 also have this same issue.

next time it happens, pull the batter and SD card. wait a minute or two, put in the sdcard and battery, then plug in the WALL charger. It will power on the phone and boot it up.

has happend to me twice - so now i just never turn off my phone :P rebooting it is also touch n go to be honest... the phone is sooo sensitive! :P
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hotleadsingerguy:
The phone's not sensitive...it requires an 800mA charger (0.8A). If you connect it to something less it doesn't have enough power to charge the device. If you let it sit long enough it *WILL* charge it...but it'll probably take a day to have enough juice to start up. If you let the battery drain completely it usually won't turn on until there's like 15% or more battery charged. Charging 15% battery on a 400mA charger (which could very well be the level your PS3 charging stand outputs) would probably take like 7 hours.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] busydoinnothin:
Thanks for the info, everyone!
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lancered:
I'm sorry for the bump, but this has happened to my mother's Atrix that I gave her just 2 days ago.

She found it turned off, wouldn't power. I figured it wasn't charged so I'm trying to charge it on the wall adapter that it came with but no green light. I've put it on my laptop and the green light appears.

It's not turning on though...can someone reassure me that if the light turns on, it WILL power eventually?

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] slbha159:
So I have my HD2 SD care partitioned with 8GB for WP7 [Nand] and 8GB set for my Android builds. I was wondering if everytime I switch Android builds do I have to repartition the entire SD card, or is there a way to just simply replace the Android build from before with a newer Android build.

I've already repartitioned multiple times, but just wanted to know if there was a simpler way of swapping out my Android build without touching the WP7 partition on my SD card.

[HD2 Accessories] hofo_mofo:
Hello

In my hunt for a new OEM battery for my HD2 I came across this item:

http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=190502307946&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

Do you think this item is legit? (I used the fact that the hTC label on the battery's photo matches mine)

[Or should I just go and purchase a Mugen 1300mAh one instead?]
[HD2 Accessories] boomboomer:
No way to tell until you hold it in your hand and use it, I bought a 'genuine' one at the full price from an amazon seller which turned out to be a fake. The printing on it was exact same as original but the label peeled off real easy and the battery got very hot in use.

Only way to be sure is buy it from reputable dealer, if it's too good to be true then it usually is.
[Folio 100 General] msraps:
Hi there,

After upgrade my Folio thinks it is a model SGH-T849 ???

Now I cannot use my apps Documents to go (full version).

Can anyone help.

Is the v.1.4 the latest??

Regards,

Per.
[Folio 100 General] kaivish:
this is because dexter changed the name in the build.prop to make the folio appear as a samsung galaxy tab on the market and for other apps. it should basically work fine. try uninstalling and reboot and reinstall the documents to go apk.

ps a backup of all user apps as apks is very usefull before major updates!
[Folio 100 General] msraps:
Thanks,

I do have a backup made with the Android Optimizer. The thing that worried me is, that it is saying "unsupported model".

I tried and it worked great. Now I only need to figure out, why the Danish language has gone.

I can do English, no problem but it was nice in Danish. :-)
[Folio 100 General] kaivish:
i guess language is changed according to system language. setting system default to danish language then reinstalling will probably get u the danish language u want

It turns out that Dexter put an "more local" apps and here it can be chanced.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] epdm2be:
Hi ppl,

I've been looking into obtaining an Android smartphone. I find enough info about tech specs but not about some details that are important. I'm refering to locked bootloaders. Funny thing is that it's a well-known and well-documented fact on Motorola's phones yet there are MORE android phones with locked bootloaders. I recently discovered that Sony-Ericsson's devices ALSO have locked bootloaders (yet nobody writes about them like they do on Motorola). Just as I was completing the decision to get the SE Experia Neo (which seems IMHO the most interesting of the new upcoming Xperia range). I discovered this about SE android phones. :-(

How is LG in this respect?

So this comes to my question: Is there a definitive list with ALL devices that contain locked bootloaders?

If so please point me out to it (my attempts to find this info on Google came with individual reviews that mentions this).

If there isn't it is possible to create such a list and make a sticky out of it.

Apologies if this is not the right thread to post this.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ramdroid77:
Generally ALL retail Android phones have locked bootloaders. As far as I know only the Google developer phones (i.e. Nexus one and S) can be easily unlocked from adb command line.

What you're probably talking about are more sophisticated protection added by phone manufactures, like SIGNED bootloaders in Motorola phones or NAND protection on HTC phones.

Found out it was that titanium backup added system settings from 2.3.2 cm7 and this Co flicted with 2.3.è

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jebise101:
I really like the way iPhone has setup there lockscreen. When you press the home button you get the Side to Unlock screen after you side either it goes in or asks for a pass code. I was wondering if there is a way to do that on the sgs as well?

Like have the default Android lockscreen when you first press home, you slide it and then it asks for prin/pattern.

Reason i want this is so i can see my messages and song track on the default android lock screen and still have have it locked with a pattern. Plus its annoying to enter a pattern in the car while driving and changing songs so i can set the timeout of the pattern to like 15 minutes.

Do they charge $10 to everyone as a shipping fee? my friend told me they don't.

i finally bricked my phone for the first time. (hard core yeahhhhhhh!!!!!!!)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZachLL88:
They didn't charge my gf any shipping. She broke her display screen. I have a question for you though. You think I should try and odin back to stock? Her screen is responsive I just can't see anything. Or you think they wont care?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjwisniewski:
Generally, if you're processing a claim on your one year warranty and do not have the $5.99 PHP insurance bundle they will charge you shipping. However, if you've been paying for insurance the shipping is waived unless you upgrade to express.

Now, if you used Asurion for an insurance claim the shipping is normally included.

Anything else is out of the ordinary.

Just my experience as a T-Mo manager.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZachLL88:
What about my problem? You think asurion will care if I dontcha odin back?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjwisniewski:
If you did an actual insurance claim through Asurion where you paid a deductible for a replacement then I doubt they will care. (This is my opinion, not that of Asurion or T-Mobile.)

From my experience and the way we are taught to sell the bundle. Basically, Asurion insurance will replace your phone whether it breaks on accident or you run over the screen on purpose.

However, if you did an actual warranty exchange with T-Mobile, yeah they'll care. Usually though T-Mobile wont warranty exchange a device with physical damage so I'm assuming you went the insurance route and you should be good to go.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZachLL88:
Ya I went through Asurion. Ok just making sure. In case im not able to odin back to stock. Thanks for your help and I will definitely give you thanks when I get to a comp. Appreciate it.

Come join me on XDA TV!

Hey everyone. I need to start out by apologizing for the slow start on my XDA TV show. It turns out that doing interviews over hotel internet doesn't work no matter where you are in the world. My business trip has ended, which means my show, XDA Insider, is ready to get going.

My show is all about you! The community. Each week I will be sitting down with a developer, admin, moderator, or anyone else who helps contribute to the community.

Obviously, I can't kick start the show without a guest, so this is my callout: Would you like to be on XDA Insider? Post here or send me a private message containing 2 pieces of information - 1. what you do on this site 2. what times during the day you are available for interview.

Please remember that this show will be interactive, so we will need to set a recording date so I can give the community ample time to ask any questions they would like.

Show recording times

I prefer to record the show on Sunday in the morning Japan Time (+9), but anytime Sunday should be fine. Keep in mind that this is Saturday evening for those of you in the Americas

Suggested Recording Times Based on Location

Americas: Saturday evening or Sunday morning (This is Sunday morning or evening for me)

Europe and Africa: Sunday morning (This is Sunday afternoon for me)

Asia and Australia: Our times are similar. Mid-day would be best to adjust for the couple hours difference.
